EXL (EXotic nuclei studied in Light-ion induced reactions at storage rings) is a project within NUSTAR at FAIR. It aims for the investigation of light-ion induced direct reactions in inverse kinematics with radioactive ions in storage rings at the future FAIR facility. The existing ESR at GSI, together with its internal gas-jet target, provides the unique opportunity to perform this kind of...

The versatile 4π-detector PANDA will be built at the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), an accelerator complex, currently under construction near Darmstadt, Germany. A cooled antiproton beam in a momentum range of 1.5 − 15GeV/c will be provided by the High Energy Storage Ring (HESR). All measurements at PANDA rely on an excellent performance of the detector with respect to...

One of the physics highlights of the future PANDA experiment at the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR, currently under construction) is to search for exotic states that have been predicted by Quantum Chromodynamics, and whose properties are governed by the presence of valence gluons. Such exotic states can be formed directly and copiously in proton/antiproton annihilations, which...

The PANDA experiment is one of the pillars of the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany. The PANDA physics program is focused on answering fundamental questions re- lated to Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), mostly in the non-perturbative energy regime, using antiproton collisions on proton and nucleon targets. The central Straw Tube Tracker (STT) will be the...

The Super FRagment Separator (Super-FRS) at the FAIR facility will be the largest in-flight separator of heavy ions in the world. The separation principle is based on the use of beam collimators to stop the unwanted ions. In one of the most common situations, the heavy ions are produced by a fission reaction of a primary Uranium-238 beam (1.5 GeV/u) hitting a Carbon-12 target. In this...

At the Low-Energy Branch of the Super-FRS, projectile and fission fragments will be produced at relativistic energies, separated in-flight, energy-bunched, slowed down and then thermalized in a cryogenic stopping cell (CSC) filled with ultra-pure helium gas. After extraction from the CSC the ions will be delivered to the high precision experiments MATS and LaSpec. The prototype of the CSC and...

We have recently successfully demonstrated a new technique for production and study of many of the most exotic neutron-rich nuclei. LICORNE, a newly developed directional inverse-kinematic fast neutron source at the IPN Orsay, was coupled to the Miniball high resolution gamma ray spectrometer to study nuclei the furthest from stability using the 238U(n,f) reaction. This reaction is the most...

Collinear laser spectroscopy has been the workhorse at radioactive beam facilities to study nuclear spins, electromagnetic moments and changes in mean-squared charge radii for decades. With the quest of proceeding towards the study of more exotic isotopes, rapid light manipulation techniques for narrow-linewidth lasers have been developed in order to reduce the hyperfine pumping associated...
